Just finished The Umbrella Academy, seasons 1 and 2 on Netflix.

I think this is a pretty good sci-fi/comic series.  It's got a lot of Time
Travel, but it's well managed and not confusing.  The characters and their
abilities are interesting, and there is a decent balance of action and drama.

The special effects and sound design (5.1 surround) are very good as well. 
Some of the action sequences are quite impressive, and if you've got a good
sound system you can really show it off.

My only complaint is that several of the "boss battles" just take too long and
are needlessly drawn out.  But this is my complaint with all comic book movies.
